How To Deal With Guilt; Experiencing A Lifetime Set Free in Only Ten Days!
I am certainly not a large fan of guilt. It’s annoying! Every time I turn around, something is skulking around the corner that makes me feel guilty. What I eat or shouldn’t, the amount I exercise – or do not, Individuals I should have reached out to but didn’t and those things I should have done now but left until tomorrow or later. The list is rarely ending as is the guilt and I know I am not alone in what I’m going through.
The Baltimore Sun newspaper has compiled an intensive group of stories they have written on the guilt people experience, including everything from mom guilt to survivors guilt that includes folks who’ve survived the existing recession with their job still intact and people who have survived a plane wreck when others did not.

How to deal with guilt is the essential question of a world charged with it, because lots of lives are being burdened by their guilt. Guilt is an awful thing. Depending on the cause of your guilt, the ensuing shame and remorse can make living life rather hard, even weakening if life gets overwhelming. There’s no question that a large amount of guilt is self-inflicted based primarily on impractical expectations by by other people or ourselves. We need to learn how to let go of that sort of guilt, or better yet, not let ourselves own it. However, often guilt is justified when brought about by wrong, immoral or illegal behaviour. If thats what it is, what are the options we have?
In working out the best way to deal with guilt, you could attempt to live with it, tell yourself it is in the past and whats done is done and go on with what is bound to be a less joyous life. Or you could attempt to explain or minimize it, referencing 30 different folks you know who’ve done what you probably did or worse, making you feel miles better by comparison. Or you might spend the remainder of your life doing penance for it? (Lots of individuals do this without realising it.) If you have done something in your life you really feel bad for, you know these are not good options. Guilt could eat you alive before you find relief traveling down one of those paths.
A better choice is to ask for forgiveness from the One who is truly able to pardon you, your Heavenly Father. What causes guilt is sin and sin is anything contrary to what God would have us think, do or say! Hence, what that implies then is that all sin we commit is ultimately against your Heavenly Father.
King David states in Psalm 51:4 when he says against you and you only have I sinned and done that which is malicious in your sight he was talking about the adultery he had committed with Bathsheba and the successive murder of her partner when making an attempt to cover it up. Yes, there were folks concerned in his sins but above all his sins were against God. As a consequence it was God’s clemency that he required.
God pardons and forgives our sins and thats where the liberty from guilt arrives from. God, when he forgives, completely releases the offender from any farther punishment of the offense and God even goes so far as to not remember what we did. God can do that because He is God. Now, there still could be consequences from the sin you committed that can’t be evaded; cheating on a test could still result in failing the class, a unfaithful affair may still result in the wedding breaking up and not being honest to a supervisor could mean the end of a job but it does not mean those can never be forgiven or pardoned.
If we’ve got an intimacy with God, through His Son, God promises us in I John nineteen. If we confess our sin He is faithful and just to pardon us of our sin and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (everything not in compliance to His will in purpose, thought and action). Not only does He cleanse us but He removes our guilt.
Our world is very good at managing things we don’t know how to fix. We may manage disease and agony and suffering. We attempt to manage our fear and anxiousness and even our guilt. We spend far too much useless time on handling things that He wants to fix, deliver us from or excuse us of and set us free. Existing with guilt is not the way your Heavenly Father desires for anyone to live life. He paid the ultimate price possible, the demise of His Son Jesus, for your pardon and release from your guilt. Why then, would God not welcome your request to do so with open arms?
